Local student advances in Lions International Peace Poster Contest

Mackenzie Huber holds the poster she submitted for the Lions International Peace Poster Contest.

Mackenzie Huber, a seventh-grade student at Colby Middle School, has taken the first step to becoming an internationally recognized artist by winning a local competition sponsored by the Curtiss Lions Club.

Mackenzie's poster was among more than 375,000 entries submitted worldwide in the 26th annual Lions International Peace Poster Contest.

"My poster shows numerous ethnic hands joining together around the globe to create world peace," the 13-year-old from Colby said.

The poster was selected by the Curtiss Lions Club members for its originality, artistic merit and portrayal of the contest theme, "Our World, Our Future." The judging was held Nov. 4 at the Curtiss Lions Community Center. Her poster will advance to face stiff competition through the district, multiple district and international rounds of competition if she is to be declared the international grand prize winner.
